Senior Class History April 3: Under the direction of Mr. Vernon B. Craig, who also served as make-up artist, the senior class presented a murder mystery entitled The Skull . The five weeks required to prepare the play were very enjoy- able and we shall remember them a long time. May 18: The Baccalaureate service in Lincoln Hall brought back memories of the Home which we shall never forget. The choir performed beautifully as usual. May 192 Senior Banquet: Mr. and Mrs. Cortner were our hosts at a delicious dinner. May 20: On Award Day we were re- warded for our efforts and contributions during the year. May 222 The J unior-Senior Prom, at which we were the guests of the Junior Class, will live forever in our memories of Morton. We wish to congratulate the Junior class on the beautiful decorating job and to thank them for a wonderful evening. May 23: Senior Day, the day before graduation, we finished our packing and said good-by to our various friends. May 24: Commencement, this day we would remember more than any other at Mor- ton Memorial. Sitting on the stage watching the underclassmen, we wondered if they would make the same mistakes we did, and if we would make the same as last years gradu- ates. We have enjoyed living these past four years very much. We hope you enjoy this brief outline of them. In a few short days we shall be leaving this campus and we would like to thank everyone who has made our life here enjoy- able and those who have given us some of the most pleasant memories of our lives.
